Sounds like good times! Did you & Sean get the locker looked at? I take it its still down hence the lack of jeeping....

Desert Rat

Yeah, my dumb *** messed up the install. I got the replacement parts coming though, hoping I can take Sean up on his offer to get her fixed once they arrive.

Noo!!!!!!!!!! death woobles starting on the front drivers side wheel any ideas what I change first??

OrvisKrawler

how about CHECKING things before you start throwing parts at it? how do you get death wobble on one side and not the other? lol they are kinda hooked together ya know? anyway here check these

Tie rod ends
track bar bushings/joints
ball joints
rotate tires/ballance tires
control arm bushings

You don't hit sliders and such much on Pritchett. Just gotta watch drivelines on a few optional ledges. Only place I think you would beat it would be Son of Rock Pile. Unless you make or winch up Rock Pile. Jason would probably agree. As for drivetrain, Most of the harder obstacles require bumps. Chewie and Axle hill may need smaller bumps to get up smaller ledges and sandy rocks. Rocker Knocker is where most people break. But that's usually lead footed people.

Don't forget bearings.

OrvisKrawler

what are those? lol

Celticclove

I got no idea I can feel them coming. Yesterday I was driving Back from spring and the freeway is way crappy there. I hit a bump and it was clear as day I realty got a death wobble. On one side but a bearing could be going cuz it makes a good a mount of noise from that area like a kinda grinding. Noise

OrvisKrawler

grinding noises are not good

take the unit bearing off and check for looseness in the bearing

Celticclove

So far its not a loud noise LOL but true I'm just not sure were it is. Coming from my brakes are fine and there is no play in my tire so a bearing is the only thing I can think if

Celticclove

How do I check my bearings?
